Education

Lesbian group Kontra advocates the introduction of sexuality education as a separate subject in the Croatian education system.

We demand the removal of all discriminatory content from textbooks for primary and secondary schools and colleges.

Lesbian group Kontra sought to eliminate discriminatory elements of the Programme of Catholic Religious Education and they have been removed at the request of the Ombudswoman for Gender Equality in 2004.

Lesbian group Kontra conducted in 2010, an analysis of textbooks for primary and secondary schools. The analysis identified more discriminatory content, mainly in the textbooks of the Catholic religion. Subsequently, at the request of the Ombudswoman for Gender Equality, an allegation which stated that homosexuality is not sufficiently researched medicine and psychology has been removed.
